Midnight Drinks

Chapter 2

It's 6 am, my alarm woke me up and since it was much louder than I usually had it, it resulted with me falling off my bed with my blanket wrapped around me as if I were some sort of burrito. Scared shitless from the deep sleep and the annoying ass alarm. But it obviously did help with waking me up.

I got up, started my day off with the usual routine. Get up, shower, dress , ready for work,  you know all that excitement. I think the best part had to be my cold brew coffee, it wasn't sweet at all. Perfect bitter taste , and it's a damn energy booster to. And to top it off, a beagle with cream cheese, tell me that doesn't sound pleasant ? And the best place, in my opinion at least is this café down a block. It feels welcoming , warm and like a home touch to it.

Walking towards the café, instantly smell coffee and freshly cooked bread, makes you almost want to melt. Though I don't show my passion for food, I happen to be greatful of it, everyday all the time. Even if I don't eat much, food is a blessing.

Not paying attention as I walked, I accidently ran into some, being lost in my thoughts something like that was bound to happen.

" hey! Watch where you're going! "The women yelled but then strangely got all silent.

" ooff- excuse me, I wasn't looking where I was- " as I shake myself off , looking up to see who it is , it's that damn girl, Kerria, from the bar. "Hn."

Kerria growled , crossed her arms as she glared at me " great~, it had to be you I'd run into, dickless. " she rolled her eyes and shook her head " stop being in cloud 9 and pay attention to where you're walking. You can hurt someone."

I laughed dryly,  crossing my arms as I smirked " luckily, it wasn't a someone but a something. " Kerria looked at me darkly and fisted her hands. " fuck off. Just go dickless."

"Its SASUKE." I growled. She chuckled, amused.

"Sasuke? More like sasuGAY! Haha!" She began to laugh, shaking her head. " I feel sorry for you, and that I'll buy you a coffee. SasuGAY." She then walked towards the café right before I was about to question why she's suddenly offering me coffee... Then again, why ask ? It's free coffee, maybe I'll ask after she buys me it.

So I just followed her inside, confused and annoyed since she keeps giggling about my name. " can you stop it already, you sound like a damn hyena. " I pinch the bridge of my nose and she chuckled, finally stopping her laughing.

" alright alright, sasuke. I'm Kerria. Maradiaga, Kerria. " she says, and if I'm not mistaken, I can hear a bit of spanish in her last name. Plus , the way she pronounced it. " Maradiaga... sounds Hispanic. I'm Uchiha, Sasuke. " I say , sort of nicely introducing myself.

She looked at me with an eyebrow raised, a tilted smiled but then she gave a soft, toothless smile. " Sasuke Uchiha.. I like the sound of it. Sounds like some rebel name, pretty badass. It suits you. " she nods and looms forward but continued to speak to me. " so, sasuke, you were at the bar yesterday, trying to get at my friend in which you completely failed. Why is that ? Are you some predator? Looking for a one night prey ?" She joked. I scoffed and rolled my eyes.

" as if. I'm not stupid to go around and just sleep with people. A friend of mime invited me there, told me there was a pretty girl but left out the part that she's married. But honestly, I didn't want to go. But Suigetsu can be annoying and won't shut his mouth. " Kerria noddded, understanding as I spoke.

" Hm. So why didn't you want to go ? Not very social ?" Kerria asked , and I feel as if she.. knows me. Like, it's scary but like if she understands my point of view in things. I don't know if I should trust her. "Hn. " Kerria chuckled once more. " I'll take that as a yes. Now, order what you want, I'll pay. "

I ordered what I wanted , Kerria down the same and we went to go wait for our orders after she paid. I looked at her breifly, but very curious as well. She turned to me and raised her eyebrow again " Curious are we Uchiha? I don't mind you asking me things. If you don't want to be seen as nosy, then I won't see you like that. Plus, I'm not like that, trying to get to know a Pearson isn't being nosy , Sasuke. It's just communicating. Make friends or just acquaintances. " I blinked, looking at her as she said that and I only scoffed "Hn."

A couple seconds went by, our orders were called and we grabbed the food and Kerria looked at me " well I gotta go. Strangely, it was nice seeing you, again. Have a good day Sasuke." Kerria smiled, waving goodbye and left the café. I was there, more curious and curious. It's hard for me to make friends, Suigetsu was pushy and made me open up to him. But I didn't regret it. Kerria.. She's not as pushy, and she actually seems the type to ... trust. Truthfully, what still has me onto her is that thing I over heard with her having a child with Shikamaru.. But that's to personal, and I don't want to start a conversation towards that so fast. For all I know she could be sensative or uneasy about that.

I would be, it's pretty personal , especially involving her child. Who knows? Maybe if I do make amends with her, it will lead to something good ? Not in the sense that I see her together with me, not that there is a problem with that, but I see her more as a friend. We'll see..

Dont worry guys, trust me, I will bring Naruto in this soon ! I have a plan on how sasuke and Naruto will meet, don't worry ! It won't be all that special but they will meet. :)
